Divisions of perennials like rudbeckias and cannas in November......hmmm! Then it will be winter!

 

Lavender, nemesia, arenaria. Hope something takes! Geraniums as soon as i have time...

 

Took cuttings from my tender fushcia, Rivendell, yesterday, as I'm worried it won't survive the winter. Got home from work this evening to discover the cuttings haven't even survived the day - kitten had upended the pot and danced soil across the sitting room Will have to try again at the weekend...

 

@2nd_bassoon Norty kitty Hope your next cuttings are more successful ......and im sure you won't forget to keep them out of Norty Kitty's way

Iresine Herbstii
zebrina Pendula
Tradescantia

Still got
Fuchsias ..... around 60 types

Not a lot as most tender ones are lifted and potted for the winter but I have taken cuttings of Coleus Saturn and Perilla magilla. Two of my Bougainvillea cuttings from Malcesine have rooted and will over winter in the conservatory, too cold for Coleus and Perilla which will stay on the kitchen window sill.

 

Great idea for a thread!

Aww, he was only trying to help

 

@"M" Love to read what everyone's planning makes nice reading for our looooong winter months ..not to mention its a good way of getting all my info logged in one place too

 

We nearly lost our Philadelphus which is over 30 years old, some idot (me) hard pruned it and nearly killed it, but it has come back from the roots, so i've took some cuttings just in case i prune it again

 

@Jiffy how relieved were you .........
Mrs.Jiffy SAYS ....MOVE ....AWay ..... from..... the..... Philly ....

 

Jiffy, philadelphus needs to be pruned every year but correctly
It wont affect yours for a few years now but pruned every year, after flowering, it makes for a compact floriferous shrub.
At least you now know two things.....you wont kill it by over hard pruning and you can prune it to produce plenty of flowers
